The Welsh county had a debt of more than £16m that was this month reduced to the restructured figure of £4.7m with the three creditors, including Cardiff Council, agreeing to write off around three quarters of the arrears.

Graphene is arguably the most remarkable material ever discovered, and after years of experiments and research, scientists have finally created what they're calling the first commercially viable graphene product: a light bulb. Manchester University (the same place where the material was discovered) and a company called Graphene Lighting have teamed up to produce the graphene bulb. The bulb doesn't use a regular filament like incandescent bulbs. It has a graphene-coated LED light shaped like a filament. Scientists estimate it could be 10% more efficient and will last longer than traditional LED bulbs because graphene is such a good conductor. The graphene bulbs could be on store shelves in only a few months at a "competitive price," according to a press release from Manchester. As the world's first two-dimensional material, graphene is 1 million times thinner than a strand of hair, but 200 times stronger than steel. It's been dubbed the "wonder material." The two physicists who discovered it in 2004, Andre ...
